My bull and I had an incredible opera date last night, seeing the premiere of an afrofuturist opera called Lalovavi. Lush, funny, emotional, and poignant as the libretto was split between English and Tutnese, a secret language of enslaved Africans.
I sincerely hope this masterpiece is picked up around the country.
There is something powerful about discovering that the thing you were taught to be ashamed of may not be broken at all. It may simply have been waiting for a place where honesty was allowed.
When I started posting educational videos on Instagram, the bullshit DMs started. Yesterday an entitled elitist gay made the wrong decision and said some things that I couldn't remain silent about.
His account (along with his 6 or 7K followers) was removed right after I showed him how easy it was to find anything I wanted to know about him in a matter of minutes.
Brace yourself. Daddy's pissed.
I've got a question for the #hypno fans out there. I've got a few tracks to record, and I may as well add a couple more while I'm set up. What topics are you itching for?
Did you know that HIV actually made the leap from primates to humans in the 1920s? Or that it was already in NYC by 1970? Or that Canadian flight attendant Gaëtan Dugas was misidentified as "Patient Zero" and blamed for causing AIDS because of a typo?

I'm currently writing a book that centers on a D/s dynamic between two men, and I've thoroughly enjoyed getting to know these characters. It wasn't until I got 17,000 words in that I realized it had yet to become sexual or even physical. That's when I started thinking back to try and recall ever reading such a book. I can't think any.
Won't be the first time I've written for an audience of one.
Dinner out at one of our favorite restaurants in Cincinnati to celebrate my bull's birthday this weekend.

Recovery and kink. Let's talk about it.
And just like that, without fanfare, I finished writing the first draft of a 40,000 word book on intimacy and spirituality in power exchange.
To love you is to witness devotion in real time. You show up with thoughtfulness, care, and a kind of steady love that doesn’t ask for attention but deserves all of it. Being your Dad is something I don’t take lightly. What we have means the world to me. I’m grateful to call you my bull, and that I get to share this beautiful life with you.
Happy Birthday, Dan (and Jasper!)
A text exchange today reminded me of a deep dive I had done a few years back into the fallacy of the "alpha male". So I pulled up that work, brought it forward to 2026 and published it. If you've ever wondered where it all started or how we got to where we are today, this one's for you.

The Bastian Protocols explores power, submission, ritual, desire, and the difficult truths revealed when someone chooses to kneel. This series is not your typical erotic fiction. It explores domination and submission with a deliberate eye on trauma and how leather and kink works through a trauma-informed lens.

I know there are a few kinksters in recovery in the 'verse, so I'd like to share that I'm launching a free newsletter for people who find themselves feeling like outsiders in their own recovery. Real recovery is not all-or-nothing, and it's not perfect. It doesn't have to be. FORWARD is Recovery for Humans.

@aphyr@woof.group This is the kind of quote that makes you nod like you understand it, then immediately stare into the middle distance and rethink wolves, holes, desire, capitalism, therapy, language, and whether your group chat is technically a rhizome.
Deleuze and Guattari really went all in on the "stop trying to make the unconscious behave. It has paws. It has tunnels." Not exactly casual beach reading, but definitely the kind of book that rewires your brain if you let it.
No one is worthless. Power exchange dynamics cannot ignore mental health, and we must temper fantasy with reality. subs are not worthless; I would argue that if a sub was indeed worthless, they would be of no value to a Dom. In fact, a worthless/valueless individual would be a liability to anyone they enter into a relationship with.
Know your worth, know your value, and guard your mental health. It's just as precious as your physical health.
No, 'MasterDaddy@mastodon.social', neither you nor the dozen or so other iterations of the same AI bullshit are welcome.
It was bad enough in the late '90s when we had to go after the online 'masters' preying on the uninformed in the chat rooms. It's just more of the same predatory bullshit in a new form.
As a follow up to my recent post about my cholesterol and blood pressure, I wanted to share an update on my cholesterol numbers.

@dkub@woof.group just like any other form of relationship, power exchange dynamics will only thrive when all parties involved are feeling safe, nurtured, and cared for. I've always been at odds with the whole "bratty' thing because it oversimplifies behaviors without clear understanding.

@aphyr@woof.group I remember periods of time when I had to read a page, take a break, digest, reread that page... lather, rinse, repeat.
